'Nightmare scenario': A food safety expert explains why Chipotle can't seem to escape food poisoning scandals (CMG)

Chipotle's in hot water after another food poisoning scandal. However, according to a major food poisoning expert, the chain isn't necessarily blame.

Chipotle is retraining its employees on food safety.

Chipotle said Tuesday it had closed a restaurant in Sterling, Virginia, after multiple customers said they had gotten sick from eating there.

"I think that a lot of it just has to do with the fact that people are very acutely aware of what happened at Chipotle in 2015," Marler told Business Insider. "To have a norovirus outbreak, E. coli outbreak, salmonella outbreak within months of each other is unprecedented. So, I think that, along with media and social media, heightened people's attention."
